Democrat presidential candidate Hillary Clinton has struggled to convince voters to trust her with the duties of the nation’s highest office, and Republican rival Donald Trump has capitalized on voters’ disbelief.

Stein concluded by calling Trump “a real doer” — which is exactly what has been missing from Washington, D.C. the last eight years and is the only thing that will put us back on the right path.

With only a few weeks left until the November election, the last thing Clinton needs is high-profile Democrats blasting her in the media and endorsing her opponent.
